Jones, Jr. Suffers Hand Injury!
Developing Story/ By Brad Cooney, reporting ..
15rounds just spoke with Roy Jones Sr, and was informed that Roy Jones Jr suffered a hand injury while sparring on Friday. Big Roy informed 15rounds that Roy has a knot on top of his hand right behind his knuckles, and that he was currently on the way to the doctors office for an X Ray. When asked how bad the injury was, Big Roy replied " As of right now he can hardly hit with that hand". 15rounds will stay on top of this story, and will give up to date reports as they are available.
Of course Roy was never going into a fight having been KO'd in his last 2 fights, either. Doesn't matter to me. I wasn't planning on paying for this crap anyway.
Actually it could be good if the fight is delayed because I'd like to be able to pay for Corrales-Castillo as well and I'm sure many ppl feel the same way.
Roy doesn't have a history of getting out of fights. He doesn't break a contract, never has. So, if he gets out of this fight we should definitely see it as a legit reason, and not an excuse.
We'll see what happens. So far he has been indicating that he will fight on.
If that tendon is messed up then fuck...he'll be shelved for a while and he probably should just stay retired.
If not...train through the pain and shoot it up with cortizone b4 the fight and break Tarver's nuts.
Ya got any excuses tonight Roy?Tarver is great for asking that and doing what he did in that fight.But I hope he is o.k. but would not be real pissed if the fight is merely delayed because as of now Oct.1 is a busy fight night fans wise.
hmm
I hope the injury is fake and Roy is just messing with Tarver.
However, I get the feeling it is real and that this could be a problem. That does not sound good at all. If he really is hurt then they need to postpone it, or Roy needs to take this as a sign and retire for good.
But, Roy has been implying that he will fight on and just shoot it up with cortizone.
